So we have had a nice January... Hard to believe it is already February tomorrow! WOW! Time is really flying! Here's the latest:
1. Dave-Working hard as usual AND peeling all the WALLPAPER off our walls... Yes for the 6 years we have lived in this house we have not mustered up the gumption to take the UGLY wallpaper off our kitchen and two of our bathroom walls... UNTIL now! The past 3 Saturdays that I have been at work Dave and the girls have peeled all the wallpaper off these walls. Our master bathroom is textured, painted and is looking great!! We have the kids bathroom left to texture and paint and then the kitchen. I came home from work last night and all the wallpaper in the kitchen is GONE! YEA!! Thanks for working so hard guys! I can't wait for the finished product!! (New texture,paint and countertops soon to come!)
2. Me - hangin with the kiddos, work, YW, etc...
3. Matt - Cruising along at school... enjoying his classes and going to the BYU games and FILLING OUT HIS MISSION PAPERS!! YAHOO!!!!!!!
4. Lindsey- played the piano at the YM/YW talent show... did a GREAT job!! Went to the temple to do baptisms for the dead with our YW/YM.
5. Katie - Finished the Harry Potter series (7 BIG books!) She loved it. Started and is halfway through the Percy Jackson series... Looking SO FORWARD to her birthday in 2 weeks and joining us in YW!! :) yea!! Oh, and did I mention her hair is turning STRAWBERRY blonde? Sooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
6.Ellie - Lost 2 teeth! woot! woot! and looking forward to her baptism in March! Also is becoming awesome on the piano!!!!!
So there ya have it! We are looking forward to some fun times in Feb/March. We have a colorado trip/baptisms in Utah, my Dad's 80th birthday bash, Katie's birthday, valentines, Ellie's birthday, baptism and Dave's b-day all in one weekend! YEA! Stay tuned...

Can I highly recommend the "Paper Tiger" to remove stubborn wallpaper? You move it in a circle and it perforates the paper; you then get the paper wet and then scrape it off. Magic. Sounds like you guys are busy and coming up on a busier time of year. Definitely come out for Spring Break! I believe Cheri & Bry (and kids) plus Deb and Rob (and kids) are coming...there is plenty of floorspace and for sure it will be warm enough for the kids outside in tents!! It would be awesome!!
I don't want Katie to have her birthday. I just got her for AD. NO FAIR!!!
Can't wait to see all the new home improvements! I'm jealous!!
Wow--Projects are so fun! Can't wait to see the kitchen, I bet it looks awesome! We can't wait to see you guys next week! Les--you need to come--I'm feeling so bad about Katie's bday. Have a super spectacular day!
Busy! Are you going to post before and after pics?? Would love to see the transformation!
